Our Mission:
The mission of the National Convention of Gospel Choirs and Choruses is to better the Christian singer, instrumentalist, educator or leader; to enable the prepared gospel ambassador; and to spiritually motivate everyone to live the message of the gospel song. Our goal is to foster an appreciation of gospel music and to develop the spiritual growth of our membership. Dr. Thomas A. Dorsey, founder of NCGCC and the Father of gospel music cultivated a standard of excellence in the gospel music industry. His music was deeply rooted in scriptures and was connected to everyday life experiences. He had a passion and commitment to support the local church by training songwriters, musicians, directors, and singers to enhance the church’s ministry through music. As the legacy continues NCGCC continues to be committed to the betterment of the Christian singer, instrumentalist, educator, and leader to enable them to be a ambassador of gospel music. This collection of songs recorded live in St. Louis, MO encompasses the legacy of the old landmark “Precious Lord” while seeking to express the new voices of our very own YYA songwriters. We are anticipating that awesome things are going to come about due to the messages recorded on this CD. As we continue to move in CELEBRATION with our very own NCGCC Mass Choir let us open our hearts for YOUTH IN WORSHIP.
